PLEASE HELP ,, I’m having trouble getting the torque arm bolt loose it looks stripped , where can I find new bolts or should I just buy a replacement that comes with bolts ?
Any tips on getting this thing loose would be greatly appreciated as well .
I’m trying to adjust my chain.
Also need to take the rear tire off to have balanced too

Heat(propane torch), and pentrating oil.
A 12-point socket may bite on to it, if not, there are specific sockets with teeth made to remove rounded hex fasteners.
A tight fitting socket with an extension as a handle, then hammer the extension end and twist counter clockwise.
The shock from the impact can also help loosen stuck fasteners.
 
take a dremel and cut the nut diagonal / under 45°

then u can looosen it easy

and then go out to a serious tool-dealer and buy best metric tools - ratchet etc.

last step - go to a suzuki shop an buy that nut new - it is a metric, metallic selflocking one.
 
Thanks everyone I truly appreciate each and every one of you . Sorry for the late response my notifications still aren’t coming thru . Had a ruff couple off days , all is well tho .
I was able to get it off , I ended up taking the whole caliper off and the brake arm then I was able to beat the socket on and had enough leverage with it removed to get a good grip on it and get it off .
